I am looking to apply for an AMEX. I have never had any AMEX card with MR points, so I should be eligible for the sign-up bonus. I am wondering what card at the moment provides the largest bonus? Any tips would help.

Thanks!

Take a look at the offers in my Credit Card section of my website below, near the bottom of the Annual Fee Cards page (though the offers are free of that fee for a year).

Thanks pgary.

The best I could find was a 10K MR bonus. Are there any AMEX cards that are offering a higher sign-up bonus than 10K?

Thanks! Any consumer cards from AMEX that has close to 25K bonus offered by this business card? If not, I will just go ahead and sign-up for this one.

I'm not aware of any personal card offer in that range unless you have been targeted.

The spg amex card advertised on flyertalk offers 10k bonus points for sign-up and 15k bonus points after you spend $15k within 6 months. That's 25k bonus points total. It's a personal card, free for first year and $45 thereafter.

Amex Business Gold rewards Card 35k MR sign-up. I was offered all the bonus ID's in the above linked post that included the 25k popular offer plus a 10k renewal bonus that seems went unannounced in the other admired post.

Hope it helps get you more MR's.

SPG card will not get you MR points, but you can transfer your SPG points to many airlines on 1:1 basis.

Awesome, that works. I should be able to get additional bonuses because of spending thresholds. :)

Has anyone seen a 25K sign up bonus for the [U]business[U] SPG Amex? The most I've been able to find is 10K.

No, there isn't one out there as of now. Only for personal.

Something to consider is that having the gold charge card will drop the annual fees of (at least some of) their other cards by $55. Having one knocked a chunk off the fees of the DL card I had my HHonors card converted to.
